Only a handful of female rappers such as Megan Thee Stallion, Iggy Azalea and Cardi B have topped Billboard’s chart, but then in collaborations with other artists.
“Super Freaky Girl” has been streamed 21.1 million times, played on radio 4.6 million times and sold 89,000 digital downloads in its first week, writes Pitchfork.
The song is Nicki Minaj’s third single after “Say so” (feat. Doja Cat) and “Trollz” (feat. 6ix9ine).
